Animal I Have Become

Alexandra had just been debating what to do with her day off when she had received the text. She hadn’t seen Logan in a while, some time with one of her favorite people was just what she needed. She didn’t even bother to knock, opening the door as she showed up at his house and laughing at the sight that greeted her. “Wow, I don’t think I’ve even elicited that kind of reaction out of you before, I’m a little wounded.” She joked, reaching out to take the puppy he had offered and cuddling the little thing close, scratching him behind the ears. “I never thought I’d see a literal puppy cuddling other puppies, but here we are.”

Bryce was one of those people who really liked watching the same thing over and over again. He blamed it on his childhood, having to entertain himself with the same VHS because his father refused to get him anything else. Thankfully nowadays it was easier to access all different types of media, but that never stopped him from watching the same things. It also helped that Logan didn’t seem to mind either. 

“Whale milk?” He repeated slowly. Of all the things, whale milk wasn’t what Bryce was expecting Logan to talk about. He blinked a few times before chuckling, “Uh huh, I mean…They probably just think you’re some stoner college student, and they aren’t really wrong about that”. He pulled out a bag of cookies, and Bryce made a happy noise, “Thanks by the way. Did you have a good first week of class?”

“Okay, yeah, I know it’s weird but hey. Better to be knowledgeable about a subject as a whole instead of just the bits everyone cares about!” He explained, defending his strange factoids. “OR another fun fact that I learned looking up new docs for us to watch. Did you know that some jellyfish light themselves up in a distress signal when they’re being attacked so that giant squid may come and save them?” Very pleased with all the information he obtained a few nights ago, he glanced over at Bryce.

Jolene sighed and crossed her arms, letting the other explain himself. She should just march him straight to the dean, but of course, she can’t exactly say she actually saw him doing anything, just overheard. And, even if he was high, he didn’t really look it. Anyone else could argue he just looked tired and ready for the weekend. “These aren’t the types of discussions for campus, Mr. Prescott.” She chastised. “Why don’t you focus more on the medicinal plant side of these things? At least those are more tolerated? And make the living space more lively.”

…

Ana snorts. “Ecstasy already does that - mild depression the next morning, but nothing a large bowl of fruits won’t fix.” She points out, before she adds; “Alcohol is my poison of choice.” The forestry student laughs then. “The problem is that a drug that has no effect wouldn’t be popular no? Or imagine if everyone took a happy pill and forgot to do anything else――― the world would stop.” She’s getting a bit to philosophical, but it sounds like a valid point to her.

“You know what I learned the other day? Whale milk is the same consistency as toothpaste. That’s thicker than any freaking shake on the planet, ya know? But they need it because the milk has all the fat to help with their temperature and their caloric intake.” He reached for the loop on his bag, digging in it and taking out his sour belts. “I got you a couple different things, too.” He added, handing the other his bag. “The guys at the bodega must think I’m hiding a gut under my hoodies.”

UNIverse AU - Logan Prescott - 21

Full Time Student - Chemistry Major - Drug Dealer

Logan Prescott is among the most loved and adored members of the student body. His teachers think he’s brilliant, his friends love his parties, and his boyfriend loves... well, him. There’s not a party on campus he’s not at, and there’s not a student body celebration he’s not part of. Logan is quite literally the life of the party on campus. Some wonder if he actually ever even utilizes his apartment on the mainland. 

Logan’s popularity stems from a few things. His easy going nature, his ability to throw money around like it’s nothing, and of course, the drugs he sells. Chemistry has always been something Logan found an interest in, especially when he learned about the history of most hallucinogenics and how they were discovered in an effort to help people feel better. Who didn’t want to feel good?

Despite Logan’s happy go lucky nature, it doesn’t come without skeleton’s. Logan’s father is a member of the University board, and likes lording the fact that the only reason his son was even able to attend was because his father quite literally forced him in. It’s not often they speak, and every time they have since Logan turned 18 has been nothing short of an absolute brawl. And Bryce has never had the unfortunate chance of meeting him.

“Am I? I haven’t noticed”, Bryce teased. He really liked hearing Logan say those words, even if they were in private, it still meant a lot. The pup was very impatient, but he still waited as Logan took off his jacket and shirt. It took a lot not to just jump Logan like he would have with other clients. Bryce really wanted to make this nice for the both of them, even if they were just in some bathroom at the venue. “Hmm, I think I said that my legs would look great draped over your shoulders, sir. Should we do that?” He gestured to his body next, “Wanna unwrap your present”.

“Full of charm and so sure of yourself, quite a combination.” At this rate she’s teasing him, getting such a reaction out of him is entertaining. “I’m afraid I’m not really a pet person. But now I know where to point others should they be looking for one.” She laughs at the question and shakes her head. She had to give it to him, he was persistent, and her words certainly weren’t deterring him. “You’ve just met me and you already have me pegged as the strong and independent type, hm? Is that because I didn’t fall for your charm?” She challenges, raising an eyebrow. “And isn’t everyone a little bit of both? Lover…fighter, really just depends on the person and the situation. Don’t you think?”
